in fact, I did not have any improvement by changing the AGPMode, AGPMode 1 resulted in a system lockup as well. At this moment I'm using Option "BusType" "PCI" and it seems to work. However I've not yet "pushed" the graphics to see if it really work and I still have some issues with the horizontal lines displaying on screen (although it seems to me that now this problem is less noticeable). > > but still I have the display not behaving correctly (as the attached > > image in my first email) > > Hmm.

I'm using the enormous Virtual screen you see in my xorg.conf because I sometimes use a dual screen 1024x768 (laptop) + 1920x1080 (external monitor). I suspected that this could cause problems but I'm not an expert in this field and I wanted to test all the options with my favorite configuration. I can try to reduce the Virtual size and post the relevant part of the X log. > At least for me, enabling XAA and XaaNoSolidFillRect seems to get > decent performance without locking up. > > -Dave Dave, I'm using EXA because my X log said that the driver worked better with it instead of XAA, but as I already said, I'm not an expert at all ;-) I can try these options as well and then report to Debian Bugs > Install the xserver-xorg-dev package. > 'apt-get build-dep xserver-xorg-video-ati' should get you the needed > packages. > > Cheers, > Julien Julien, thank you for the suggestion. Now I can run autogen.sh but the (new) problem is when I run make.
